I just might have a new favorite piano VST!! 😧😮‍💨🔥 Pianoverse by ​IK Multimedia Review!!

[@simbaking6338]

After having over 500 pianos of Keyscape...20 different types of Kontakt Native Instruments pianos,,,,,Ravenscroft ....VSL Vienna Imperial.... along with Pianoteq,, (just to name a few)....Why do i need another piano?.....but....U tempting me with this one bro.....lol.....Lets face it, We just suckers for Pianos, what more can I say.

[@AndrewMcKain]

So true lol it never feels like we have enough smh

[@Kamiklaasie]

Yep same here. You know what is even more frustrating? After buying all these other piano VST’s I keep on going back to the first one I bought, the good old Noire tuned to my likings, because for my setup and style it sounds the best. I could have saved so much money, but keep buying all these piano VST’s. 😂

[@computerdoctor8551]

Which grand piano do you prefer among the ones you purchased? And why?

[@csilt]

I'm a sucker for love. I've tried everything but I don't give up.

[@onlimi616]

Great playing and review! This is the first review I've seen of this library that just focused on the playability and sound of the pianos. The others I've seen focused on the wild an crazy effects, so I thought this library was intended for those that wanted an effects piano. Now I have to totally rethink my next piano VST purchase.

[@auggiebendoggy]

I came to hear Pianoverse and just freaking was floored by Andrews playing. So good!

[@AndrewMcKain]

Thanks so much!!

[@BrJD-ii4iv]

I absolutely love the raw wood sound of Pianoverse!

[@Dejvid1990]

Damn bro 😂 It’s not just the sounds that are amazing. Lets hear it for the smooth playin’ he is doing on that keyboard ! You are freaking amazing ! Cheers bro, best regards from Macedonia 🇲🇰🍻🥂

[@AndrewMcKain]

Thanks a lot!!

[@edrock26]

Only one minute in and I am SOLD! Your playing is AWESOME! Thank you.

[@AndrewMcKain]

Really appreciate that!

[@D21-q9w]

Bro you nice on keys!! That NY Grand has the warm feel I've been looking for in a VST.

[@AndrewMcKain]

Appreciate that!! And yea I agree, it's just bright enough but still very warm

[@musicchad]

I love your style! Thanks so much for sharing this demo!

[@AndrewMcKain]

Appreciate that! Thanks for watching!

[@jaymusik1235]

I am in awe of the beauty of this library its immaculately built

[@AndrewMcKain]

Definitely!!

[@GEMACOUSTICS]

I have been eying this because I need new good sounds for my Beats and thanks beo for your take on it.

[@brandoncrenshaw]

The best review of this plugin I’ve heard. I stayed away because the attack was very short on all the pianos. You masterfully covered it up. I hope IK does this same thing with EP’s. That would be crazy!

[@AndrewMcKain]

Thanks a lot!!

[@drumbangerproduction]

exactly! I just posted the same comment. I really want to like these...but the attack is keeping me away

[@valorf666]

Can you please make comparison between Keysuite Austrian Grand (Bosendorfer 280) vs Pianoverse Bosendorfer?

[@AndrewMcKain]

Great idea!

[@valorf666]

@@AndrewMcKain Thank you! Would love especially to hear the natural piano without any verbs etc, your amazing playing will take care of the rest then :)))

[@TheReal_E.IRIZARRY]

Nat Adderley Jr.....Michael J. Powell....all the producers on Introducing....David Peaston album are busting virtual nuts now knowing this piano is out. Heck, even Jamal from Gospel Musicians and Doobie Powell from Gospel Producers are creaming themselves withthis one. Good job, IKM!!!!!!

[@devostm]

First of your vids I watch and just wanted to comment that your playing is so good holyyy

[@AndrewMcKain]

Thanks a lot!

[@Justin_collier]

I’ve used and enjoyed the sound of the piano on my Kawai mp7se, haven’t came across a vst that comes even close to it. Id love to compare this with the SK shiguru patches Alot of vsts don’t have the right dynamic range in the low register, and the decay and resonance can sound fake in some cases, and those are the things i search for in any vst. Hope this will be my next main vst!!! I look forward to trying it out. Is this vst available now to buy? Beautiful playing sir

[@GEMACOUSTICS]

Bro i have been dieing for you to do this review

[@jaymusik1235]

I said the same thing God bless you Andrew for your review. Gem acoustics it's a good library go for it, you won't regret it

You caught me off guard with 'Angels" by Richard Smallwood. Haven't heard that one in years.

[@AndrewMcKain]

I love that song!

[@akibe7608]

@@AndrewMcKain Check out 'Til The End' by William Becton. There is regular version with singing and an instrumental version that I listened to obsessively as a high schooler. I listened to the instrumental version because of the freedom the pianist had.

[@DeyquanBowens]

Pianoverse is the 🐐

[@AndrewMcKain]

It's so great, man your video convinced me early! lol

[@takosan699]

I have to admit, it excited me too. When it came to raw wood sound, I realized this was what I was looking for. If they followed the path of Ravenscroft and Keyscape, they must have created a great product. Sterilization should not be applied in sampling piano libraries so that the full spirit of the piano can be captured. An extremely natural piano sound can already be heard in the demos. The only thing I'm curious about is how many layers there are per key.

[@ervinboulware2212]

Sounds beautiful

[@AbsoluteMusic_Man]

Great playing as always brother! Quick question you using volt 2 interface? Time for an upgrade for me. Focusrite interface is normally the go-to for most musicians. I have my eye on the Universal Audio Volt 2, heard nothing but great things. I believe in one of your video you mentioned you have one?

[@AndrewMcKain]

Thanks man! And yessir I’m using the Volt 2 here, it’s been great for me

[@101Licious]

So, they only released Acoustic Pianos ? I love love LOVE Electric Pianos. But this sounds great !

[@park171]

Piano sounds great. Your playing is a big part too. I too have the Kontact pianos. They’re good but how do you like the Pianoverse overall compared to you other favs? Thx

[@AndrewMcKain]

Thanks a lot! Pianoverse is definitely near the top for me, only Keyscape compares right now

[@park171]

Real grand pianos don’t even sound this good. I’ve played some great Grands and some of these samples have an advantage especially for recording even over real grands. I purchased Key Shite UVI. Complete disappointment as was Ivory for Synthogy. NI grands in the k14 are ok. This sound too good to believe after getting burned on so many large Gigabyte Libraries. Thanks for your review.

[@tuneunleashed]

I agree!!!! Real pianos don’t sound this good. Each grand is different and it also depends on the room

[@musikkidd]

Ohhh yes‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️💥💥💥💥

[@AndrewMcKain]

This is the one bro!!

Hi, did you out some EQ for the vídeo? I bought it and the same preset that you are using seems tiny compared To yours… thanks

[@localpm]

Sounds amazing.👌

[@dennisridley9768]

yeahhhh right off of hearing the Natural Concert Grand 🔥

[@AndrewMcKain]

Yea bro its so clean!!

[@lolsucks3599]

Also noticed ure pressing very softly and the velocities are like u pressed hard. U put the Motif XF on Fixed Velocity? Mine is always too low velocity and I changed the settings and it doesnt allow u to customize the curve only in performance mode which sucks.

[@AndrewMcKain]

I had my velocity on normal

[@jonathanstephensmusic]

This is beautiful!

[@AndrewMcKain]

Thank you!

[@mollykeyzz8330]

hi bro well done pls which is preferrable for the gosple if at l can only choose one of it?i love wood sound with dry and not echoed or decayed

[@AndrewMcKain]

I would choose the YF3's Natural Concert Grand for gospel

[@LaFusionTV]

Please record a Christmas album…

[@praststudio7690]

Я полностью недоволен Pianoverse и подумываю о том, чтобы удалить фортепиано и записать покупку на счет неудачного опыта. По моему мнению, IKM не справился с этой задачей; ни одно из фортепиано мне не пригодилось. К сожалению, демо-версии нет, и мне кажется, что это сделано намеренно, потому что многие люди не стали бы покупать пианино. Это мое субъективное мнение, и каждый может судить о нем по-своему, но мы должны требовать, чтобы в будущем предлагались демо-версии, и в противном случае избегать покупок.

[@m3rc743]

Never expected to like the Yamaha out of all

[@lolsucks3599]

Also what Sustain Pedal are you using? I cant connect my sustain pedal to FL Studio.

[@lolsucks3599]

@@AndrewMcKain And what cables are you using to connect your Motif XF to your computer? I always have high pitched electrical noise when I connect my Motif XF with Line Cables to my Audio Interface.

[@drumbangerproduction]

sounds very good but one big giveaway i herd on all of them sounds like notes get cutoff too soon. So even though I think it sounds better than vsl, that makes it a big giveaway

[@jaydezproductions2081]

@Andrew Mckain. What laptop are you using?

[@AndrewMcKain]

I have a M2 Macbook

[@magnoliaman]

Just wondering, what interface are you using since the motif is the board you're playing on? Always have issues using interfaces other than focusrite

How do you connect your Motif XF to your PC? I always have high pitch noise whenever I use Line Cables to connect the Motif XF to my audio interface. But when I plug the headphones directly into the Keyboard there is no noise.

Yourbreffering to vst or board itself

[@IvanEDaza]

Maybe for tropical music or something where piano is bright and percussive, but if you mean for actual acoustic piano playing that’s gotta be a joke
